Need to abandon another destructive phrase: Gun Violence. Guns don't kill with a human activating it. People kill other people... gun are inanimate objects that do nothing on their own. Gun Violence is strictly political anti-gun rhetoric.

It was mandatory for all city employees for the 'peace and justice initiative' at a local college. We learned about micro aggressions and implicit bias. oppressors and victims.
